After the self etching of course. This stuff flows like pudding.
I built it in 1998 but never gave it a full body/paint work up. Today I pulled some dents and we started filler.
The color is so white it almost hurts the eyes to look at it when the sun is out. She's Beautiful. Special thanks to my brother for all the work...
In my younger in dumber days I may have danced on this part of the truck. Smooth as a baby's bottom now.
Wet sanded the primer with 800 to try something new. The smoother the surface the smoother the paint, right? Well it may have been a little too...

I knew there were problems before we pulled the windshield but I didn't know how bad it was. Almost made me scrap the project. I was slow work but...

Purchased my Yota in '94 from the original owner, older gent losing his sight. It was my first vehicle. My truck and I have had a lot of fun but...
